Maya Moon Beach Resort Family Vacay

We had a fantastic stay at Maya Moon. We booked both houses so each of our families had their own space. Beautiful ocean front, you can watch the sunrise from the front porch. We used the pool, dock and restaurant next door. Very convenient and great food. Would definitely stay here again!
